NEW: The Dirty Bird SMRS Handguard features our new Rock Solid Patent Pending Anti-Slip / Anti-Lift attachment system. The clamp-on style of handguard attachment, utilized by many manufacturers is both secure and convenient but one problem has always been that clamping the handguard it tends to lift the front end of the handguard. The longer the handguard, the more drastic the effect. If you've ever had to bottom-out the front-sight post of a rail mounted BUIS in order to get the correct elevation, the issue is probably due to this "lift" phenomena.Made in the USA - Backed by Dirty Bird Industries' Limited Lifetime WarrantyBarrelChambered in 5.56 (will also function with .223)16"" Government Profile w/ 1:7 TwistMid-Length Gas SystemBlack Nitride FinishHigh Pressure Tested and Magnetic Particle InspectedSub-MOA GuaranteeBolt Carrier GroupDesigned for use with both 5.56 and .223Strategically relocated load bearing surfaces reduce carrier tilt/can't during recoil, thus increasing reliability and longevityAdditional wall thickness in the gas exhaust port area for added strength and rigidityHigh Pressure Tested and Magnetic Particle InspectedHandguardToughMachined from aircraft grade 6061-T6 aluminum extrusions.Anti-rotation tabs.Type 3 hard anodizing or Cerakote sprayed at 1 mil thickness per spec.VersatileM-LOK attachment slots on all sides (except top)Full Top 1913 Picatinny Rail5 Slot Rail Sections at the 3, 6 and 9 o' clock positionsRaised QD attachment points at the 3 and 9 o'clock positions.PracticalAircraft Grade aluminum barrel nut.
